Audio Visualiser for Listening Activity

[chazman]

Spotify already has Listening Activity, but I think it would be really cool to make it more visual by adding a small audio visualiser that reacts to the listener's current playback volume.

For example, the visualiser could appear alongside Listening Activity as a series of animated bars. If someone is listening at a low volume, the bars would move only slightly. As they increase their volume, the bars would become taller and more energetic.

This wouldn't need to analyse the actual music itself — it would simply react to the user's playback volume, making Listening Activity feel more alive and personal.

It could be displayed next to the currently playing song in Listening Activity, on a user's profile, or anywhere Spotify currently shows someone's listening activity.

I think this would be a simple but really fun way to give people more personality when sharing what they're listening to. You could instantly get an idea of whether someone is casually listening in the background or absolutely blasting their music.

It could also make the existing Listening Activity feature feel much more interactive without changing how Spotify's music playback works.
